Default New 1/8NPT "GM curve" sensor for oil temp

Just came across this new oil temp sensor from Improved Racing (no relation) for $19. Looks like a cool option for MS, since most of the existing temp sensors have something inconvenient about them.

1/8" NPT Oil Temp Sensor for OEM C5 Corvette Gauge LC5-100
  • Unlike normal GM closed temp sensors used for CLT with MS, it's 1/8NPT for good compatibility with random oil placements
  • Unlike the 1/8NPT Standard TX-73, it uses a standard, sealed GT-150 sensor connector instead of some oddball connector only found on Saturns
  • Unlike the 1/8NPT GM 12160855, it uses the default "GM curve" for best compatibility across MS firmware

Nice find - I really hate the unique Saturn TX-73 connector, it just doesn't seem rugged enough, it looks cheap and brittle - very much in keeping with the build quality of the Saturn.
